Line 124:
* ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' features the Amazing Mumbo, a blue-skinned villain in a cape and top hat who uses elaborate magic tricks to commit his crimes (usually bank robbery). If his wand is broken, he loses his powers and reverts to his normal human form. [[Word of God]] states that he was an ordinary magician who got his hands on a real magic wand, which gave him [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|magical powers at the expense of his sanity]].
* The Great Fondoo, a member of the Really Rottens in ''[[Laff-A-Lympics]]'', was a sorcerer who dressed like a stage magician.
* Ace Cooper, the titular hero of the French series ''[[The Magician (French TV series)|The Magician]]''.
* At least one episode of ''[[Dungeons and Dragons (animation)|Dungeons & Dragons]]'' suggested Presto was an amateur stage magician before Dungeon Master gave him a magic hat. (Jimmy Whittaker in "City at the Edge of Midnight" says that Presto can show him some card tricks at school.) Which might explain why he's called Presto.
* Common in some golden-age American cartoons.
